Industrial, commercial and garage doors and gates and pedestrian doorsets - Protective devices for power operated doors and gates - Requirements and test methods

This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the power operation of industrial, commercial and garage doors, and gates when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable as identified in Clause 4.
All lifetime phases of the machinery including transportation, assembly, dismantling, disabling and scrapping are considered by this standard.
This standard does not deal with sensitive protective equipment using ultrasonic, radar, capacitive,inductive, passive infra-red and vision based technologies. For these types of equipment this standard can be used as a guide.

European foreword
This document (prEN 12978:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 33 “Doors,
windows, shutters, building hardware and curtain walling”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 12978:2003+A1:2009.
Compared with EN 12978:2003+A1:2009, the following changes have been made:
a) revision according to the requirements of EN ISO 12100:2010 (safety of machines);
b) deletion of requirements which are covered by EN 12453 for the safe function of the combination of
protective device and industrial, commercial and garage doors, so that only basic requirements of
protective devices are covered by this document;
c) modification of the definition of test pieces and test procedures.
This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU
Directive(s) / Regulation(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral
part of this document.
